Howler monkey at the pool

A working artist that moved to the beach and rediscovered my love of wildlife art. There is just something about sitting on your porch and watching a troop of monkeys rousting a flock of parrots from the tops of the trees that makes you want to capture them on paper and in paint.

This little guy was a lone male recently chased from his family troop. He was lonely and just wanted to hang out with me at the pool for a couple of weeks. He now has his own troop and comes by with his kids but not back to the pool.
